  • DAT HAIR! :D

  • Realmedia playback, now where's my t-shirt?

  • the british tart quickly went into a southern drawl... why is it that the british can do flawless american accents but we americans usually do awful british accents?

  • No one on this board could do any better. Chris is cool.

  • The start sounds like Steve Carell xD

  • Screw overhyped, overpriced Alienware. For people who can't be assed to research the hundred other companies making more powerful, cheaper systems.

  • I use to watch this show everyday.

  • @lsl70 Me too... I also liked The Screensavers with Leo Laporte :P

  • omfg i didn't know that (not)

  • Was this a show? Im from the UK :P

  • @TylerSurvivors

    Yes, it was on TechTV a network that existed on DirecTV satellite, from 2001-2004, it died when Comcast bought the network only to merge it with their G4 service that they wanted to expand to satellite TV. TechTV was owned by CNET, who acquired the network from Ziff Davis Media that founded the network.

  • "lassoo"

  • Ok, someone please help me out here: PWNED.

    I went to school, good ones, so what the fuck is "pnwed" Did some retard hit the "P" when they meant the "O" one day and all the monkeys flocked to using that? How in the fuck do you pronounce "pwned"? "PaWened"? Jesus, it's bad enough even 3rd world countries are beating us academically but here, now, all the time, "pwned"? Use that on a fucking job resume and see how far it gets your ass along Burger King's hiring list. PWNED = Fucktards

  • @MichaelFrostChicago Haha You are pwned !

  • I find it funny that someone recorded this, saved it for 7 years or so, and than put it on youtube lol.

  • I used to watch this show lol

  • He said "im on windows xp but it will work on 98" in todays age it would be "I'm on vista, but it will work on windows 7" :)

  • Well, atleast I know how to lasso programs. I didn't know how to do that.

  • o_o Lassuuuuuuuu?

  • @alexb12kt lmao you did you really just say "chris pirillo is one of the most famous legendary tech enthusiasts in the world. Dude get his dick out of ur mouth and his balls. This guy is an idiot and so are u hahaha

  • @david44454 wanna prove that theory retard?

  • he's like oh alien ware ive actually seen it before OH WOW it has cool colors???

    he know nothing what a retard

  • @david44454 I think you're the retard. Firstly Alienware is one word. Secondly Chris Pirillo is one of the most famous/legendary tech enthusiasts in the world. He is a really knowledgeable person too.

  • @alexb12kt You fail.

  • @Cheesecake2k You fail, as 'You fail' isn't even a sentence.

  • @alexb12kt Desperate for insult much?

  • @Cheesecake2k Do you even know what an insult is ?

  • @alexb12kt No.

  • @Cheesecake2k Didn't think so :P

  • incredible, he already had this annoying web address telling thing back then :/

  • He's on XP and hes talking about highlight, drag and drop? UHHH DUDE... thats far from new even when xp came out.. lol

  • @xxxRENOTSxxx true, but keep in mind that tip was for news out there.... lol :)

  • ALIENWARE! HAH!

  • oh boy old days...FAT32 for gaming lol

  • FAT16.

  • 'how ur doin'?'sounds like annoying orange lol

  • Again, when Chris was a true geek :(

  • real media playback. what do i win. a shirt. oh cool!

  • oh god techtv was so much better than g4

  • g4 used to be techtv

  • The first one was a wonderful tip ... LOL! xD

  • WOW! Now I can pick several icons at once! I know how to use a computer...YAY!

  • Wasted 6:30 of my life

    Ive seen no pwning

  • Leo was definitely much better than Pirillo. Pirillo can barely get viewers on his internet show because he is this retarded.

  • @silvercoke they are both good but chris did used to be cooler :P

  • What a fucking idiot. He started the video with a tip a 3 year old kid who's never used Windows before wouldn't need, he continued the video with recommending a system based on the case and the amount of fans it has, and he said FAT32 better than NTFS, which even the world's biggest retard with a day's worth of computer expertise wouldn't say. I think it's safe to say that all of the above mentioned reasons render this guy's opinion worthless in anything tech-related.

  • chris does not know how to pronounce lasso

  • Real Media PB :P

  • chris u fail then but love u now

  • I actually like him better in this video then I do in his new ones.

  • omg... this is so 90s xD

  • @songoku350 He's geting older, that's how everyone is.

  • @songoku350 Don't forget on TV people usually have to act as a character, now as they are.

  • I bet this guy get's laid a lot.

  • @BleedingheartsofHate

    His wife left him. HAHAHAHA

  • @BleedingheartsofHate With retarded grannies, maybe, who never clicked and dragged with a mouse before.

  • oooooooooooo I get it now

  • @songoku350 It might be because he was on TV. But it probably also is because he got famous (for a geek among geeks) and it went to his head.

    And he also likes Apple. (just my opinion)

  • @songoku350 of course he seems that way he was on tv

  • what a dork

  • Manasses Virginia I'VE LIVED THERE. And went to the battlefield :o

  • What was the answer at the end????

  • fat32 version of xp ??????? How Dumb : p IDK

  • Windows Xp Pfft! : p

    Oh My Gosh I Love Him!

  • WOW XP is old!!! I cant believe how delayed and CRAPPY Vista was.

    XP was probably just out when this was created.

  • Hahaha "alienware computers."

  • @Cashmoneyn0 hahaha "I've seen one up close"

  • windows 98.... wow

  • Start > run > services.msc > stop: messenger.exe

  • he dosent know a shit :P its sound like but hes a good host :D

  • @thepure879 look at his youtube channel called lockergnome and see if you can still say he doesnt know shit

  • Lol netsend command over the network.

  • Mmmm...

  • hotshandra you sure are clever using this title to lure the cris pirillo community into "thinking" he was gonna get owned lol, but I had my doubts from the get-go and I was right!!!

  • this guy gets so distracted so easily

  • lol for the ram on alienware, it said 512mb

  • @TrippyTro; LOL! yeah, but this is 2001. I was running 128MBs ram then. =X

  • Lol me too haha, i remember when i was running 1.9 ghz lol

  • @MrNukesftw - That's not that bad though, I'm running on 2Ghz on my MacBook, my iBook is only 1.2Ghz and my Future Mac mini will be like 2.26Ghz or 2.53Ghz so 1.9Ghz isn't that outdated lol.

  • for a gaming pc it is was outdated, the new gaming pc's are 4-8 - or 12 cores, most run at 2.83 - 3.2, and they overclock to up to 4ghz, or 4.5, this is 1 maybe 2 cores. and at 1.9, thats about like a netbook is today. More importantly the graphics on that ran at about 100mhz and todays run at up to a 1.5 ghz, with 2gb of vram, the old ones had like 256mb

  • @12345borneman remember 32mb of ram? : p

  • @daniel87980 I remember 10MB hdd aswell :p

  • @MrNukesftw me? 233mhz

  • that was like long time ago, i remember having 64mb or ram and 8GB hard disk. i was the coolest kid back then

  • Inter? National?....This never aired in my country lol

  • im up in canada, so that makes it international as i watched it here. it wasnt that great though, chris was too goofy. i still watched it whenever i saw it was on though. i miss tech tv.

  • this is 04 ok

  • how could a tech guy can pop up??

    how smart is he?

  • wow he refered to 98. This is old.

  • no shit.

  • Hes using XP though

  • @BSZanatsu yea, he also refered to xp lol

  • @BSZanatsu Windows 95,98 & XP best ever on the planet 

  • what a moron ... there is basically 0 info here.

  • lol agreed

  • @MastroCicio Basically Computing For Dummies?

  • @MastroCicio

    That's because he's a fucking pawn of corporate advertisers.

  • @MastroCicio It's an old clip from the early 2000's, what were you expecting? What the fuck is wrong with 17 of you? This is an archival piece. I'd like to see all of you go into a museum about steam engines and say "this is so old, there's basically no info here".

  • @MastroCicio ive seen people who don't even know how to turn a computer on

  • Wow. :)

  • hah good ol tech tv i used to watch this all the time

  • I mean FAT32

  • No.

  • is NTFS still better for gaming?

  • 62.2.43.160

    lol, i wonder if that Ip is still up.

    Did he use netsend or something?

  • yes.

  • lol ... why would the windows tip be something like how to highlight more then one icon at a time? if someone doesn't know that do you really think that person is watching Tech TV LMAO

  • Well you do have to realize this is an out of date show now. Back then Not EVERYONE had a computer in their home or even office. But yes I would have to agree that in this day and age if someone didn't know how to highlight multiple icons they shouldn't even own a pc at all

  • you missed my point, ppl that wouldn't know something as simple as that wouldn't be watching a show like this ... it makes me wonder what were the other tips? how to use a drop menu, or how to maximize a window ... and just to point out it's not THAT out of date he's running XP so it's 2001 computers were in most schools, offices, and homes by then

  • Oh gotcha true I mean I never watched this show so I wouldn't Know but I would think they should have a bigger xp tip

  • lol yeah, 'cause this one was pretty bad ... it's probably why Tech TV so no longer around

  • Chris P may be a good talker and he can't just tell the kid to build him self one. But the color and the noise of the fans should not play to much in your buy. Its the parts that matter.

  • Wow, what horrible fucking advice, alienware? He is pulling shit out of his ass with that response.

  • alienware was nuts back in the day.

  • I really doubt this was international t.v coverage, I have never seen this on t.v here in the u.k.

  • Gah he is such a dweeb but I love his videos!

  • Doesnt Windows Media player have all of those functions now? It just shows how far we've come.

  • I can't believe this tool was on television.

  • He is probably the best youtube geek that was in a TV-Program!

  • Is his nationality Jewish?

  • His nationality is United State American, his ethnicity is Italian.

  • lol

  • italian

  • u mean religion?

  • @DangerousPirate Hes Italian. Watch his grooming videos! : p

  • omt. chris is a cool and smart guy but i dont think tv was ever good for him. he acted different on television, put himself under too much pressure and the networks dont like his loose style, epsecially since hes such an individual so he doesnt have the social nack in the area of typical humor u see routinely as part of common sense...or whatever something like that idk why i even typed this

  • but i share your opinion!

  • ps, thats a kid.

  • any prebuilt computer company(dell, alienware, hp, etc) that makes their own motherboards is something to stay away from.

  • holyshit... what about 3 files =O

  • can't be done!!!

  • im gonna try it hope i dont crash my comp

  • ^6:30 mins of my life... wasted

  • And yet you're the one who watched it :/

  • he's fucking terrible

  • alienware looks completely different

  • I can't tell if that's a boy or a girl on the phone...

  • Alienwares are overated, overpriced pieces of shit, just build your own.

  • Agreed!

  • voice of the phone sounds like little Vern !

  • Comment removed

  • ths is like 2001 ?

  • Moving multiply files at once, IMPOSSIBLE!

  • lol this is when xp was made xD its so embarasing how surprising it was if you ask me =P

  • Both of them move?

    WHAT THE FUCK!@

  • And lol @ the amazing "lasso" function :D.

  • Comment removed

  • Wait, where's the part where he got pwned?

  • we used to use the messenger service at school to fuck with teachers

  • yea windows SP1 sucked! hahaha

  • good :D

  • wow so old weird alienware looks like shit back then

  • looked like it... but wasn't ... wasn't owned by dell either

  • yep, and dell sucks balls.

  • Wow, Chris used to be cool.

  • what do you mean used to be?!

  • You have totally misunderstod the meaning of pwned.

  • i agree, i would rather have better and faster specs, like sata and lots of ram

  • keeping in mind....this is old.... lol

    ppl still used windows 98 then!!!

  • good point.

  • SO funny lol. and at 6:15 FUNNIEST FACE EVER
